Abstract
John Locke’s writings related to religion can be divided into ‘public’ writings which regard the relationship between religion and politics and ‘private’ writings which regard personal religious belief. Political theorists have given significant attention to Locke’s ‘public’ writings on religion, but very little attention to his ‘private’ writings on religious belief. This paper examines those theological writings of Locke – especially The Reasonableness of Christianity – and argues that Locke’s aim in these writings is to reform Christian theology so that it is compatible with limited and stable political order.
